The Chronicles of Commissar von Blacke

THE SHORT VERSION

Three games follow a young commissar from a jungle evacuation to senior command. Catachans escape Necrons, Cadians break a Chaos defensive line and Vostroyans face Tyranids in his final battle. Each encounter demonstrates a different strength of the new Guard. The story ends with the officer killed by a Lictor, while the players reflect on orders, reserves and their changing fortunes.
